| We have been kicking around doing a second Parrot gun with the crew in another activity, rather than sighting the gun. Are any of you interested in this? |

| Yes to the parrot gun and crew #2! Can you do a hollow bore so the rammer or sponger can go deep in the barrel? That would be great. |

| So Tim...Now that you see the Reb crew ramming home the charge in the W.Britain's line up ...what would be your next choice for a second set of Michigan Light Artillery from ONWTC? |

| I would like to see just the figures offered also. I have a couple of Britains Parrot guns with 2 crewmen, 3 inch ordinances with no crewmen Limbers with 2 crew men and a confederate cannon with no crewmen. So some artillerymen to fill in the gaps would be excellent. Why not offer a cannon with crew and crew without cannon. That way you could mix and match. But I still have not got the Loomis battery set either. Dang this is gettin tough. |

| This set is one of the most accurate ones available today...it will put your old RC2 guns to shame. We are sold out here, but I think a few other vendors have a few left, including Treefrog. I would recommend getting one while you can. |

| Well, you could illustrate the sequence of worming the bore and stopping the vent, or you could show the charge being picked and the vent primed. Might add variety by having casualties occur during either sequence, but not enough to disable the gun. Or have the crew replacing a damaged wheel after taking a more substancial hit. Love to see a bugler with musician's red piping on the shell jacket, too. |
